Evening at the Farm

We went to visit my family this weekend.  My brother and sister-in-law are in the process of building a house and have made a lot of progress that we wanted to see.  Oh, and I just had to see my cute little nephew again!  He's growing so fast!!  Here are a few pictures from around the farm.  (I didn't get any of my nephew because my hands were full holding him while he was there!)

I went walking around the farm and found an old milkjug and carried it around with me for a while.  For being empty, it wasn't the lightest thing in the world, but I guess you know that it was made to last.  It's leaning against an old outhouse.

This is in front of one of the crops - not usually where you find a milkjug - but it works for this :)  It had been raining off and on all day and I was trying to capture a little of the sun peeking from the clouds before it set.

There is a beautiful old barn at my brother's place.  It has been the subject for I don't know how many photo shoots - my senior pictures, my brother's senior pictures, my brother's engagement pictures, and my nephew's newborn pictures.  It's a great old barn with a lot of character.  There is still writing on the walls from the farmer who built the barn.  A lot of history in that old barn.  This is one of the windows that's fallen out in recent years.

Here's a front view of the outhouse.  I have honestly never been inside this one (or any other actual outhouses, now that I think about it), but my dad tells me that its being used to store old wooden fence posts.  I'm too scared to look inside, so I'll take his word for it :)

And here's the barn!!  You can see the top right window is missing (the one on the ground).  There used to be a door in between the two windows, but it's probably been carried away by the Oklahoma weather.  You can see my brother's dog Olive (who is the momma to my little Amelia).
